I'm seeing a lag of 8-10 hours on some of my emails through that server, which is probably controlled by a push-down stack - list in, first out.

The answer is simple - adjust the first tab to be a little bigger, or simple delete it, so that the numbering, be it 1-9 or 10-99, uses the second (now become the first) tab.
